Best place forpearl retail shopping in HK

[eloisegirl]

A friend is travelling to HK and has two extra days to explore. She loves pearls and although I have searched this forum, all the shopping tips were about trade shows. Where does a regular Joe (or in this case, Josephine) go to buy pearls? Any other HK tips or must - sees appreciated! Thanks!

Hong Kong doesn't really have a pearl market like some other cities in Asia. A lot of stores sell pearls, but I've never browsed them or price-shopped them.

To expand further what Jeremy said, Hong Kong lacks education and marketing on pearls. The pearl jewelries can normally be found in brand name stores along Nathan Road or big shopping plazas.

However, if you are really into seeing pearls in "real action" rather than the boring expensive ones, you may perhaps try the following:

LUNA PIENA (1 shop)
Shop G84, G/F, Peninsula Centre, 67 Mody Road, Tsim Sha Tsui East, Kowloon, Hong Kong

THE PEARL FARM (4 shops)
